S.H. Figuarts Yuyu Hakusho Younger Toguro 100%
A former Spirit Detective, Toguro gave up his humanity, becoming a demon along with his brother, in order to gain more power. Becoming obsessed with finding someone stronger to fight, he challenges Yusuke Urameshi to join the Dark Tournament for a showdown.
The set comes with a pointing left hand for Toguro.
When Toguro won the Dark Tournament 50 years ago, he was granted any wish he wanted. He and his brother wished for more power by becoming demons. Toguro since then has gained enormous strength and can regulate how much raw power his body can release.
A mere wave of his arm, heck, even the release of his battle aura, is enough to damage enemies close to him. It’s too bad we don’t get an accessory for Toguro to do his iconic “Finger Flip Bullets” attack.
With S.H. Figuarts Yusuke Urameshi.
Back in the day, Dragon Ball Z reigned supreme on its timeslot on Japanese TV. Yuyu Hakusho was the only series that was able to fight it to a ratings standstill thanks to how imposing Toguro was as a villain and how well the series was done at that point, compared to its early days.
Lol… a fun bonus for this set is that it comes with alternate “punched” faces for Yusuke and Toguro.
I was pleasantly surprised Yusuke is balanced enough to hold this pose without a stand for support.
It’s harder to do when it’s Yusuke punching Toguro, though. I decided to just use some stands to get this pose right.
Overall, pretty decent. I wish Toguro came with some more accessories or effects parts, but I’ll take what I can get from this line.
That said, I really hope Bandai at least completes team Urameshi so that Yusuke has his pals to pose with. Yuyu Hakusho was really a big thing back in the day when Anime was still relatively new to the western world and it’s a shame no toy companies have really gone deep into making modern proper action figures for this series.
